- User's Responsibilities
    1. The initiation of an auction, uploading, selling
    • The user uploading a product is responsible for giving the actual descriptions and accurate parameters of the product or service he/she uploads. This information should be entered on the provided, online product information sheet.
    • By uploading a product and initiating an auction the seller commits to handing over the purchased product - in the condition that it has been listed - to the highest bidder of the successful auction.
    • The compensation that the seller can request for the uploaded product is exclusively the price considered to be the winning price of either a fixed priced sale or an auction sale, which can be the followings:
      • In the case of an auction sale:
        • Price achieved and given by the seller
        • The value of the highest bid that reached or exceeded the minimal price
        • In the lack of minimal price, the highest valid bid
      • In the case of fixed priced sale:
        • The valid offer in the value of the fixed price given by the seller
    • The seller's offers submitted to the website of Biofuel Marketplace are considered to be a contracting declaration, so withdrawal is not possible.
    • The seller is not allowed to bid on an auction if it was initiated by him/herself neither him/herself nor with the help his/her trustee on behalf of a registered user by using this user name of the Biofuel Marketplace website. In case of a seller attempts to bid in this way Geonardo Ltd. suspends such a sellers' access rights and deletes his/her registered username as well.
    • It is not allowed to initiate an auction where the posted quantity does not correspond with actual sale quantity (e.g. the sale price of a product is the price of a given quantity but actually the product can be purchased only in bigger quantity) or the posted purchase price includes some additional, unexpected charges.
    • A new auction can only be launched in the category that has the closest attributes of the product listed. In a specific category, a maximum two auctions can be listed, otherwise fixed priced sale has to be used and the number of pieces can be entered on the Quantity field.
    • When an auction is announced the so-called keyword display is not permitted if it is not linked to the item or product. Biofuel Marketplace Team will remove all duplicate listings, and listings including keywords. The access rights of those users, who frequently initiate an auction in the inappropriate category, use keyword displays or several times lists identical products are going to be revoked.
    • Exclusively an actual and real product or service can be listed to an auction. A service can be put up for auction only by providing a detailed service description that should contain the duration of the service and actual number of the services.
    2. Bidding and Purchase:
    • On the marketplace of the biofuelmarketplace.com website operated by Geonardo Ltd.., a user with a valid bid will be committed to his bid until closing of the auction, but due to the nature of an auction service the revocation of a bid commitment is not possible. The duration of a bid commitment is the same as the duration of the auction.
    • Only Geonardo Ltd. can revoke a submitted bid or a valid offer but exclusively when both parties have given their consent and if the auction has not been completed yet. Geonardo Ltd. cannot be obliged to cancel a bid. The execution of a bid cancellation is only a possibility in special and exceptional circumstances. Because the bid cancellation is only a possibility and it can only take place with the given consent of both parties, Geonardo Ltd. will not accept any post-complaints regarding a bid cancellation.
After closing an auction, the contracting automatically enters into force and both the buyer and seller will be obliged to comply with and fulfill the contents of the contract, that is the seller is obliged to sell the product in the final bid price and the buyer is obliged to buy the product for the same price.

If the bidder's bid is the highest, both Bidder and Seller are obliged to complete the transaction unless the transaction is forbidden because it is against any section of the law or of the present contract.

The seller and the highest bidder have to make contact within five days starting from the expiry date of the bidding period. If the parties cannot make contact within the required time frame, the seller is entitled to list the item for a new auction.
